The maintenance of muscle homeostasis is vital for life and health. Skeletal muscle atrophy
not only seriously reduces people's quality of life and increases morbidity and mortality, but …

Outcomes following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) need improving, with
poor return-to-sport rates and a high risk of secondary re-injury. There is a need to improve …

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) applied to skeletal muscles is an effective
rehabilitation and exercise training modality. However, the relatively low muscle force and …

Blood flow-restricted exercise is currently used as a low-intensity time-efficient approach to
reap many of the benefits of typical high-intensity training. Evidence continues to lend …

Age-related sarcopenia places a tremendous burden on healthcare providers and patients'
families. Blood flow restriction (BFR) training may be a promising treatment to bring …

Knee arthroscopic surgery is a common treatment for meniscal, cartilage, bone, and
ligament injuries. Following surgery, a period of unloading to allow tissue to heal and pain …

Abstract» Blood flow restriction therapy (BFRT) involves the application of a pneumatic
tourniquet cuff to the proximal portion of the arm or leg. This restricts arterial blood flow while …

Glucose ingestion and absorption into the bloodstream can challenge glycemic regulation
and vascular endothelial function. Muscular contractions in exercise promote a return to …

Introduction Low fat-free mass (FFM) is linked to poor health outcomes in COPD, including
impaired exercise tolerance and premature death. The aim of this systematic review was to …

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) in combination with blood flow restriction
(BFR) enhances muscle hypertrophy and force-generating capacity. The present study …
